This reduction in access is what the compensation was to be for and tenant complaints will be many and with creative language. 

Financing: Would you try creative strategies like seller financing, BRRRR, or syndications, or stick with traditional loans?

Back when I first had the idea of real estate investing, creative financing was my only option, seeing as I had little capital on hand and even less of a chance that any lender would talk to me. 

I would probably structure it as debt like a loan and possibly break it up into quarterly payments or whatever you think will work best for you as far as repayment. you can get creative....

Are you sticking to traditional banks, exploring private lenders, partnerships, or maybe something creative like seller financing?

If yes - How can you creatively make yourself money without costing the tenant more? 

Househack, creative financing (seller financing/subject to), buying properties through lien auctions, partnering with someone who has cash.

Strategies like furnished mid-term rentals, renting by rooms, mid-term/short term rentals or creative mixes of these can be considered too.

Zillow is not the only place you can see homes for sale, get creative and think outside the box.

The creative people will always find a way.
